Wow, Today Is Just Full Of D:

Someone pulled Voodoo's cover up over her tail earlier in the day.
I found this out because Rob the Security Guard mentioned it when he brought Arjay by for playtime.
Well, when the cover is up over the tail, the elastic on the cover doesn't work. By the time I got to her, the cover had been completely blown off and was lying in a pile near her left front tire. I initially thought it had been stolen, but a quick glance around the car told me otherwise.
WTF, college students. I don't mind you peeking under the cover to see what Voodoo is, but please, PUT THE DAMNED THING BACK.
Now I have to spend the next twenty or so minutes dusting her off, and a good two hours of my time tomorrow washing her.
I'm also slightly paranoid that the reason the cover was up was that someone hit her while parking and wanted to inspect the damage. Argh, now I have to go check that, too. D:
EDIT:
Found out why the cover was off.
Someone tried to break in. One of the main sunroof ribs had been pulled out of joint.
I wonder if "Fucking Stupid College Student" is covered by my insurance?

...and apparently that's what should happen to the miscreant responsible? Anyway, poor Voodoo, gettin' manhandled. D:

Well, the good part about all of this is that Rob is now gonna be extra-watchful of her for me. Although he's not here during the day, it's still something.
I think the fact that I have both a steering wheel lock and a clutch lock (on the pedal) may have deterred the would-be thief. It would have just been too much work. XD

Maybe she has a super alter ego, and Rob can be her sidekick, or her man on the ground, or -- wait, who am I kidding? She'd totally be a villain.
Nevermind. ;3

Cat: *is like a teeny tiny Ferengi bank, sir. With fur. :3*

Date: 2007-10-01 10:08 pm (UTC)Wanda would have to be Frank, of course.
From there on, my brain assigned a few more people, although it waffled over whether Pietro or Lance got to be Eddie (Lance; Pietro as Magenta, Boom-boom as Columbia, and possible Blob as one of the freaky guests). Then I started sketching poses. I had to stop because a small child came in.
You don't wanna be drawing a teenaged girl dressed like Dr. Frank N. Furter where a kid can see.
It is an awesome story, sir.
Date: 2007-10-01 11:40 pm (UTC)Oh, lordy.
ilu.
Why not download the series? Or have someone who has it send you a copy? I do not, alas, have it, but I'm sure someone on your flist does. :D

I'll get around to it eventually, but it's not the top on my list of priorities. Although right now I have an animated Evo desktop wallpaper.
